Matsuba Izakaya – Japanese

Soft lantern light glows against dark wood accents in this bustling retreat, where the air is thick with the tantalizing scent of charcoal-grilled yakitori and the convivial hum of friends sharing stories. The kitchen delivers a choreographed flow of Japanese soul food, ranging from delicate, ocean-fresh crudo to crispy, umami-rich bites that pair perfectly with a cold glass of craft beer or a carafe of premium sake.
